How to assemble a swan from modules. Origami swan step by step tutorial for beginners. How to make a module for a volumetric figure

Origami belongs to one of the most ancient oriental directions, which acquired new life... Continuous improvement allows you to significantly expand the expressive possibilities of art to create a masterpiece from a simple sheet of paper.

One of the most common images for incarnation is a swan. This bird has become a symbol of purity, loyalty and perfection. And it is worth considering how to correctly origami a swan.


Swan outline in classic style

To do simple origami Swan for beginners in the traditional style, you will need a square sheet of paper. Then you need to perform a number of simple steps:

  • first, the sheet must be folded diagonally;
  • after it must be deployed;
  • the result of these actions will be a straight line;
  • now you need to wrap the bottom edges parallel to the diagonal;
  • at the next stage, you need to turn the workpiece over and repeat the previous operation;
  • the body and tail of the swan are ready;
  • now you need to make a transverse fold to get the bird's neck;
  • bending a smaller angle again, we get the head of a swan;
  • it remains to bend the work in half again and slightly correct the head.

In order for the figure to be stable, you will need to straighten some of the folds a little. And the beautiful origami swan is ready.


Manufacturing modules

Diagrams and instructions on how to make origami from modules look a little more complicated. but this method allows you to create more complex shapes that combine multiple colors. Therefore, it makes sense to master this technique.

First of all, you need to learn how to make blanks for modules. A4 office paper will suffice as a material. The size of the blanks will depend on the size of the craft. For a figure of small modules, A4 sheet will need to be divided into 32 rectangles measuring 3.7x5.3 cm.

To obtain larger elements, you will need to divide the sheet into 16 rectangles with a format of 5.3x7.4 cm.Each of them needs to be shaped using the following steps:

  • first you need to bend the workpiece in half horizontally;
  • the next fold is required vertically;
  • now you need to unbend the rectangle to the previous position;
  • and the edges must be folded towards the vertical fold;
  • turning the workpiece over, it is necessary to bend the protruding corners to obtain a small gap;
  • the edges must be lifted and folded vertically.

Having understood the scheme for making the module, you can master the swan origami master class. To obtain a standard figure, 459 modules are required.

For a one-color craft, they can all be made of white paper, diluting the composition with one red element. For a multi-colored bird, modules of all colors of the rainbow are required.

Making a volumetric swan

The complexity of this work lies in the connection of the elements without the use of any fixing composition. You can make a modular origami swan in several stages. First, the first 3 blanks are taken. They need to be folded so that on one side of the two modules are in the pocket of the third. 2 more elements are attached to the resulting structure by the same method.


The operation is repeated until the circle is closed. In the process of work, it is worth holding on to the already folded elements so that the craft does not fall apart.

The next row of modules is put on over the previous one in a checkerboard pattern. As a result, the resulting circle will become wider. And thus you need to make 2 more circles.

Turning the resulting structure in the opposite direction will be the most difficult, but necessary part of the work. After that, the attachment of new modules will be performed from the top. After completing another circle, the body of the swan will be ready.

Now you have to perform rows at intervals. The parts to be filled will gradually take on the shape of wings, and the head and tail will be in the resulting voids.

The rows, representing the wings, are performed with a decrease in element on both sides at each level until their number is reduced to two. The tail is done in a similar way.


To complete the neck, it is necessary to put the corners of each module into the pocket of the previous one. You need to start with a red element that will represent the bird's beak.

In the course of work, it is worth immediately forming the desired bend of the neck. To fix the resulting structure on the body, you will need 2 needles.

Looking at the photo of the origami swan, you can understand that in order to complete the work, it remains to complete the stand. It consists of two circles, the principle of which is similar to the swan's neck. First, the resulting parts need to be glued together, and then attach the finished figure to them.

To summarize: the possibilities of origami technique allow you to perform shapes of any degree of complexity. This requires desire, time and perseverance. The result will be original craft able to decorate the house. Or become a gift to a close friend.

A bit offline on the Entrepreneurial Man blog. What can a webmaster do on long winter evenings while waiting for the next issue update? You can master modular origami and make beautiful things out of paper. With this article, I decided to support my previous note, in which it was proposed from A4 sheet without glue and scissors. And then she's all alone on my site. We need to support it with a thematic article. The envelope is made using the usual classic origami - the art of folding figures and paper products. In this article, we will look at a more complex modular origami technology for creating a 3D model of a swan.

The essence of modular origami is modules :-). Models are assembled from triangular modules, which are made from 1/8 of A4 sheet. First you need to make blanks by cutting the sheet into eight parts. To make it easier to cut the sheet, it should be bent three times and cuts should be made along the folds.

It is not necessary to cut very evenly, small irregularities will subsequently be hidden during the manufacture of the module. Before that, I already worked in the modular origami technique and know how to fold triangles, so I immediately cut the required amount of paper.

Quite simple steps. For a high-quality model, you will need to make a lot of triangle modules. Fortunately, after the 50-100th module you will be able to do them with your eyes closed. And you can combine this tedious process, for example, with watching TV or talking with your loved ones and relatives. In less than a week, I made over 1000 modules.

The modules are connected to a blank as follows:

I advise strongly not to insert modules into each other, otherwise the workpiece will be too flat, and you will have to assemble it first. The swan has inner and outer wings. For the outer wings, I took 25 modules in one row.

Top view of a five-row workpiece:

Bottom view:

We continue the assembly up to about 10 rows, and then divide the row into zones. 4 modules for the neck, 8 modules for the wings and 5 modules for the tail. For the wings on one side, we reduce by one (more precisely, by half a module) the number of modules in each new row. Thus, we get another 14-15 rows.

Small inner wings are made in the same way. Only they do not need to leave room for the neck and tail. I put 16 modules in a row, 8 for each wing.

Small wings - front view:

Top back view:

Next, we need to make the body of the white swan. The connection scheme of the modules remains the same, only we almost immediately (from about the third row) begin to reduce the number of modules in each new row.

View from above:

Bottom view:

Now we have all three details ready. double swan from modules. You can insert them into each other. The parts fit tightly and hold well in place, even without glue.

To decorate the swan, it is desirable to make the extreme modules of colored paper. But where does a rogue like Seorubl come from at home colored paper? That's right, I don't have it. I had to go out to the area and catch a couple of kindergarteners in order to borrow colored pencils from them for a while. I was too lazy to paint the border modules, so I limited myself to my eyes and beak. It turned out to be a cute white swan. We make two such models and we get origami swans for a wedding.

Another photo, swan assembly, front view:

A close-up top view of the double swan so you can see the details of how the modules are connected. Pay attention to the neck, in it the modules turn in the opposite direction.

Little swan modular origami

I still have a few modules left, and I decided to make an additional small winch out of them.

Both swans in one photo:

I don't know about you, but I really liked modular origami. The swans are great. No wonder I have spent several evenings of my life mastering this technique.

It took about 135 sheets of A4 paper to make the swans. At the same time, I took the "dirty" paper, on one side the text was already printed on it. The method of folding triangles presented in the article allows you to reuse, for example, damaged or irrelevant documents at the moment. Such "material" can be found without any problems in any office with paper documents.

Yes, another interesting picture from the masters of Photoshop:

Take care of nature, give joy to yourself and your loved ones, make a paper swan. And do not forget to subscribe to blog updates, there is still a lot of interesting things ahead.

The swan is a fabulously beautiful, faithful, noble and wonderful bird. A symbol of love, light and devotion. There are many different ways do this miracle of nature with your own hands. One of them is the art of origami. A style that is subservient to both adult and child. You can fold origami figures using diagrams with instructions, but it's still easier to use the system of master classes with a photo. So, how to make an origami swan out of paper step by step?

Let's start simple

You can start with the easiest.

You will need a square piece of paper, black and red pencils, and scissors.

First, a simple square is placed in a rhombus.

Then it folds in half.

On the sides, you need to make feather cuts and draw the head and neck of the swan, as in the photo.

Cut out the head and neck in the middle of the square, neatly and symmetrically.

Grab your head and bend the sheet into a triangle, like this:

Glue the tail lightly and draw black eyes and a red beak.

These are the birds. This origami swan pattern is also suitable for young children.

Beauty from a serving napkin

This assembly scheme is also very easy. This craft can be used for decoration festive table, for example.

It will take paper napkin size 33 × 33 cm. It must be put in a rhombus, with an angle with all opening sides down. Fold the napkin in half and unfold it back, thus making a fold. Now the right corner needs to be bent inward. To the line of this fold.

It also needs to be done with the left corner. Then turn the workpiece over. Bend the right corner to the middle again. Do the same with the left. It should look like this:

Bend the upper corner down, to the very edge, and then raise it halfway back up. This will be the head. Bend it in half lengthwise.

Straighten the swan's neck. Move the figure at the bottom so that it stands. Raise the head. In order to form the bird's tail, it is necessary to lift the top layer of the napkin and straighten it. Then do the same with the rest of the layers. All that remains is to put the swan on a plate.

And on the table is not just a napkin, but also a decoration. Festive and beautiful!

Big rainbow swan

Modular origami is made from many modules that are connected to form a shape. Therefore, assistants will not interfere.

The modules need small rectangles. You can make them by cutting an A4 sheet. This is how you get rectangles 53 × 74 cm.

If you divide in this way, you get pieces of 37 × 53 cm.

You can also use block squares for recordings by dividing them in half. Let's start building step by step.

Fold the rectangle in half lengthwise.

Bend in half across, making a fold, unbend back.

Flip and bend the corners inward, to the fold line.


Undercut bottom edge Little. Then flip and fold the bottom corners up, leaving a gap between the folded corner and the top triangle.


Raise the bottom to the top, forming a triangle.

Fold the module in half.

Modules can be interconnected in different ways. They have two corners and two pockets. Here is one of the connection options:

You will need modules: 1 red, 136 pink, 90 orange, 60 yellow, 78 green, 39 blue, 36 blue, 19 purple.

Take three pink modules and put them like this.

Insert the corners of the two modules into the pocket of the third.

Take two more modules and attach to the rest, like this.

This is how the first ring should be made. It consists of two rows. In the inner row, modules are on the short side, in the outer row, on the wide side. Each row contains 30 modules. Assemble the ring with a chain and close with the last module.

Take 30 orange modules and assemble the third row. The modules should be put on in a checkerboard pattern.

Rows 4 and 5, 30 orange modules each, collect in the same way.

Grab the edges of the workpiece and, as it were, turn it inside out to form a shape similar to a stadium bowl.

This is how the workpiece looks with back side if you turn it over.

6th row consists of 30 yellow modules. It is necessary to put them on top, placing them exactly as in the previous rows.

The assembly of the wings begins from the 7th row. You need to choose the side where the bird's head will be. Choose a couple of corners, and there will be a neck. To the right and left of these corners, make a row of 12 yellow modules.

It turns out that the 7th row consists of 24 modules and there are two gaps in it.

Continue making wings. Each row will now decrease by one module. The 8th row consists of 22 green modules, two times 11. The 9th row includes 20 green modules. Row 10 - 18 modules of the same color.

11 row - 16 blue modules. 12th row - 14 of the same modules.

Row 13 - 12 blue modules. 14th row - 10.15th row - 8 modules of blue color.

16 row - 6 purple modules, 17 row - 4 modules of the same color. 18th row - 2 purple modules. The wings are assembled. We need to give them a shape. They should be convex at the bottom and slightly curved at the top. Like this.

Extravagant thing, isn't it? So rosy Swan will not only be an original element of your home decor, but can also be a great gift. To create such a swan is not so difficult as long, since it consists of a large number elements (modules), and of course absolutely handmade. Step by step diagram you will see the modular origami swan below. This technology was invented by the Chinese, they were the first to create volumetric figures from triangular origami modules. The composition consists of a large number of elements of the same type (modules). Each module is folded from one sheet of paper, and then the modules are connected by nesting them into each other. You can make such an origami swan without glue, the frictional force will prevent the addition from falling apart, but it will still be safer to glue the modules together, then the figure can be used as a toy and not be afraid that it will fall apart. To create modular origami swan you need to connect many modules of different colors, below is their number. It would be nice to do such a complex figure together with friends or assistants. You need to take high-quality paper, colored office paper or colored coated paper will do. It is better not to use thin paper. As it was already mentioned above, the basis of all origami is the module, let's take a closer look at the scheme of its manufacture.

The module is made from a rectangle of white or colored paper. The aspect ratio of the rectangle should be approximately 1: 1.5. You can get the necessary rectangles by dividing the A4 format into identical parts. It is necessary to divide the short and long sides of the A4 format into four equal parts and cut along the indicated lines, then you get rectangles of about 53 × 74 mm.

If the long side of A4 format is divided into eight parts, and the short side into four parts, then we get rectangles 37 × 53 mm.

You can also assemble 1/2 square modules using the note blocks, which you can purchase from office supplies. How do triangular origami module 1. Place the reverse side of the rectangle. Fold in half.

2. Bend and unbend to mark the center line.

3. Bend the edges to the center. (At this point, we turn the piece upside down and fold the edges to the center on the other side. Everyone can find the most suitable method for themselves).

4. Turn the workpiece over.

5. Bend the corners. (Please note: a small gap must be left between the folded corner and the top triangle.)

6. Raise the edges up.

7. Fold up the triangle.

The resulting module has two corners and two pockets.

How to connect modules to each other? The modules folded according to the indicated scheme can be inserted into each other by various methods and we get three-dimensional figures. Here is one valid connection method:

Assembling the swan figure 1 red;

136 pink;

90 orange;

60 yellow;

78 green;

39 blue;

19 purple.

If you wish, you can make a white swan with a red beak, for this prepare 1 red and 458 white rectangles. Take three pink modules and place them as follows.

Insert the corners of the first two modules into the two pockets of the third module.

Take two more modules and attach them in the same way to the first group. This is how the first ring is made. It consists of two rows: the inner row, the modules of which are on the short side, and the outer row, the modules of which are on the long side.

We have 30 modules in each row. We collect the ring along the chain, carefully holding it with our hands. We close the ends of the chain with the last module.

Take 30 orange modules and assemble the third row. Pay your attention to the fact that the modules are put on in a checkerboard pattern.

In the same way, we collect the fourth and fifth rows, which also consist of thirty orange modules.

Now, grasping the edges of the workpiece with our fingers, we perform such a movement as if we want to turn the entire ring inside out. We need to get this form. It looks like a stadium from above.

From the reverse side, the "stadium" looks like this:

We collect the sixth row, which contains 30 yellow modules. Now we put them on top. We check that the arrangement of the modules is exactly the same as in the previous rows.

Starting from the seventh row, we start assembling the wings. We choose the side on which the swan's head will be. We choose one pair of corners (from two adjacent modules). This is where the neck joins. To the left and to the right of this pair, we make a row of 12 yellow modules. That is, the seventh row consists of 24 modules and has two gaps.

We continue to make the wings, decreasing each further row by one module. Eighth row: 22 green modules (two times 11). Ninth row: 20 green modules. Tenth row: 18 green modules.

Eleventh row: 16 blue modules. Twelfth row: 14 blue modules.

Thirteenth row: 12 blue modules. Fourteenth row: 10 blue modules. Fifteenth row: 8 blue modules.

Sixteenth row: 6 purple modules. Seventeenth row: 4 purple modules. Eighteenth row: 2 purple modules. The wings are ready. We give them such a shape so that they are convex at the bottom and slightly turned away at the top.

We collect the tail, which consists of five rows. In the same way, we reduce the number of modules by one in each row. 12 green and 3 blue modules will be used to collect the tail.

In order to assemble the neck, the workpieces must be connected in a different way. We insert two corners of one module into two pockets of another.

We attach 7 purple ones to the red module. We try to immediately give the neck the necessary bend. If you do not want the swan's beak to be bifurcated, then it is better to glue the corners of the red module first.

Then we attach 6 blue, 6 blue, 6 green and 6 yellow modules. We give the neck the desired shape.

Strengthen the neck at the two corners between the wings. Add at will, details - eyes, bow.

Putting the stand in the form of two rings; it consists of 36 and 40 modules. We connect the modules in the same way as for the neck.

If desired, we glue the rings and glue the swan to the stand.

That's all, the origami swan is ready. As we can see, the paper swan looks very elegant and will delight the eye for a long time. Having created such a swan for yourself, I think you will not regret the time spent.

Many interesting things can be done from modules, but if you are just starting to learn this technique, then you should start with Christmas trees from modules or swan simple design.

This article is about paper swan, namely, several types of its assembly using triangular modules.

Made from paper modules, this swan is the easiest to make. To make it, you need 458 white paper triangles and 1 red (you can replace it with orange or yellow) for the beak.

Swan from modules. Scheme.

We start making a swan from modules:

1. Make the first two rows. Place the three modules as shown in the picture.

Insert the corners of the two triangular modules into the pockets of the third. You will get such a construction.

2. Prepare two more modules and insert them into the structure made earlier.

3. We connect the new two modules in the same style. But such a structure is rather unstable and can very easily fall apart. For everything to work out as it should, you should collect three rows at once.

4. Add the third row and make the structure even stronger.

You should get this design. One of its rows is made of 30 modules.

5. Just as you did the third row, do the fourth and fifth.

6. Now you need to gently take the whole structure with two fingers and press on its middle with your thumbs so that it turns out

7. Now fold up the edges of the structure to form the shape shown in the picture.

This is how it looks from the side.

And here's how it looks from below.

8. Put on the 6th row of modules in the same way as before.

9. When row 7 starts, get ready to give your paper swan wings. First, you need to attach 12 modules of the eighth row to the structure. Next, skip two modules and attach 12 more modules. Where you missed 2 modules will be the neck, and on the other empty area you will build the tail.

10. Start building the 9th row by decreasing each swan wing by one triangle.

This is how it looks from the side.

11. Continue building the wings, decreasing the row by one module until there is one module left.

12. Making the tail of the swan. Also, decrease the row by one module.

13. Making the neck and head. Prepare 19 white and 1 red module, in which you need to glue the corners to make a beak. To make a neck, first you need to place two modules, as shown in the picture, and then insert the corners of one module into the pockets of the other.

14. The final touch - you need to plant the neck on the remaining two corners between the swan's wings.

That's all!

Rainbow Swan from Modules

This incredibly beautiful rainbow swan folds very easily and requires 459 modules, which is actually not that many compared to other triangular module designs.

You can choose the color yourself, for example, you can make a beak from red modules, a body from white, and wings, for example, from black.

Such a rainbow swan can be made together with the children, they will really like the whole process, and they will be happy with the final result.

Rainbow swan made of triangular modules. Scheme.

1. Prepare red paper modules using 4 x 6 cm rectangles.

2. We collect modules. Connect the three modules by inserting the corners of the first two into the pockets of the third. You should have a basic element like this.

3. Two more modules need to be attached to the sides of our element.

In the same way, you need to make a ring of 2 rows, each consisting of 30 modules. Close the ring (see picture).

4. The third, fourth and fifth rows must be staggered using the orange triangles.

5. Carefully turn the workpiece inside out. Your design should now look like this

If you turn the structure over, it will look like this.

6. Making the wings. To do this, you need to start adding the 6th row, which also consists of 30 modules, but now yellow color... Pick the side where you are going to make the swan's head. Find two corners from two modules from the sixth row - there will be a neck.

Start to the left and right side from these two modules build the 7th row, also yellow. Both on the left and on the right, you should have 12 modules, and between them there are 2 gaps.

Continue adding modules to the sides, decreasing each row by 2 triangles.

8. Make the tail of the module in the same way.

9. Making the neck of a paper swan. Slide one module into the other and continue to build on the swan's neck, giving the desired curve.

10. Making a stand. You need to make two rings, connecting the modules, as well as the neck.

Color scheme of a swan made of triangular modules

8 row - 22 green modules (2 times 11).

9th row - 20 green modules.

10 row - 18 green modules.

11 row - 16 blue modules.

12th row - 14 blue modules.

Row 13 - 12 blue modules.

Row 14 - 10 blue modules.

15 row - 8 blue modules.

16th row - 6 purple modules.

17th row - 4 purple modules.

18th row - 2 purple modules.

Double swan from modules

You can present this swan made of triangular modules to your loved one or friend, and any occasion can be.

Make it harder than previous swans, but it will be larger and more magnificent.

Prepare a stack of sheets A4 size and patience, since it is a very important element in the manufacture of many modules - but if you have already seen the picture, then you get it.

It is not necessary to do everything at once in one day, you can stretch the process.

To create a double swan you need exactly 1502 modules. You can make it out of white paper, but of course if you add a few details, for example, pink or red (you can choose any color), then it will acquire a beautiful color, but then prepare 1322 white and 180 color modules.

The whole process is divided into 3 separate stages.

Swan made of triangular modules. Scheme. Stage I.

1. As usual, start connecting the 2 modules as shown in the picture.

2. Now connect another 60 (ie 2 rows of 30) modules that go in a circle. You should have a design like this.

3. Make a few more rows so that their number reaches 15. During the assembly process, you need to bend the structure inward once and continue adding modules, gradually bending and stretching the entire structure.

4. We collect the tail and wings. A total of 6 modules are needed for the neck (in the figure, 6 modules are divided into 2 pink and 4 white) and 4 for the tail. The tail is opposite the neck.

To assemble the neck, simply remove one module at a time, i.e. the next row of the neck will have 5 modules, then 4, 3 and stop at 2 modules.

To assemble the tail in the same style, we assemble the modules, starting with 4 and reaching one at the top of the head.

5. We collect the wings. For the first row of wings, you will need 10 modules.

When you start making the second row of wings, from the tail side you need to insert the module as shown in the picture.

6. Continue securing the modules using 10 pieces per row. You need to get to the 10th row.

7. After 10 rows, you need to continue making the wings, but this time reduce one module at a time, ie. each subsequent row will have 1 less module. Make sure that the rows of the wing on the right are equal in height to the rows of the left wing.

8. You should have a design like this with 770 parts.

9. To make your structure more stable, add modules to the base as shown in the picture to make a stand. You can put these modules on glue. At this stage, you also need to attach all the modules evenly so that the swan stands well. Make another such row (there are two in total).

How to make a swan from modules. Scheme. Stage II.

10. The second step is to make the inner fenders. Start in the same way as the first stage, but you should have 20 modules in a row (the first stage started with 30 modules).

11. Build 7 rows, remembering to stretch the structure.

12. Making the wings. For each, use 10 modules and raise 3 rows (see picture). Build each next row by 1 module less.

You should have it like this.

Origami swan from triangular modules. Scheme. Stage III.

13. In the third component you need to use 12 modules and build 6 identical rows.

14. When you get to the 7th row, you will need to use 1 less module. This will split this level in two. Each next level must be reduced by 1 module.

Modular origami is a technique that allows you to make amazingly beautiful volumetric figures out of paper. The difference between this technique and classic origami is that not one, but several sheets of paper are used to create crafts, from which modules are made, which, in turn, are folded, forming the desired figure.

One of the striking examples of the technique is the swan made of triangular modules. As a result of simple, but rather painstaking work, you can get a beautiful bird. Depending on what color paper you have at your disposal, you can make a white or colored, rainbow swan from modules.

Looking at the photographs of ready-made figures, it is even theoretically difficult to imagine how to make a swan from modules - it seems to be very difficult and intricate. In fact, there is nothing difficult in making figures, it is enough just to study in detail the master class on making a swan from modules with an assembly diagram and consistently follow the steps described there.

We bring to your attention a detailed guide, consisting of two stages - the manufacture of components and the assembly of the finished product.

How to make a swan from modules?

First you need to make the modules. To do this, you only need sheets of plain xerox paper, white or colored, depending on what you want as a result.

Progress:

  1. We bend a sheet of A4 paper in half in width.
  2. Bend it in half again.
  3. And bend it in half again.
  4. Expand and flip so that the fold lines are vertical.
  5. Fold the sheet in half again, but in a different direction.
  6. And fold it in half again.
  7. We unfold and cut or tear the sheet along the fold lines so that we get 32 ​​rectangles.
  8. We take one of the rectangles and start making the module.
  9. We bend it in half.
  10. Now bend across the first fold line.
  11. Unfold and fold the bottom corners inward towards each other.
  12. Fold the top corners as shown in the photo.
  13. Now bend the top down to form a triangle in the end.
  14. We fold the resulting triangle in half.
  15. We repeat similar actions with other paper rectangles.
  16. We got a triangular module with a pocket so that we can insert another into it.

How many modules do you need for a swan?

The number of blanks directly depends on the assembly scheme and the size of the future bird. For example, the assembly diagram below uses 458 white triangles and one red one. By reducing their number and simplifying assembly, you can get a small swan from modules.

Assembling a swan from triangular modules

  1. We arrange the three modules in the order shown in the picture.
  2. We insert the corners of the two upper modules into the pocket of the lower one.
  3. In the same way, we attach two more triangles to the structure.
  4. Insert 3 pair of triangles into the outer modules.
  5. Then we proceed in the same way.
  6. Using 30 modules, we get this design.
  7. We add 3 more rows, in total there should be 5 rows of modules.
  8. Pressing on the structure in the middle, we turn it inside out.
  9. We bend the edges up so that the bowl learns, as in the picture.
  10. Bottom view of the structure.
  11. By the same principle as before, we put on the 6th and 7th row of modules.
  12. Starting from row 8, we proceed to the construction of the swan's wings. To do this, we put on 8 next to 12 modules, skip 2 and attach 12 more. In the place where 2 triangles are missing, there will be a neck, in the remaining section of the 7th row there will be a swan's tail.
  13. In the 9th row, each swan wing is reduced by 1 triangle.
  14. We continue further, decreasing the wings by 1 with each row until there is one module left.
  15. We make a tail, similarly reducing the row by 1 module.
  16. For the neck and head, we take 19 white and 1 red module in which we glue the corners so that we get a beak.
  17. We begin to collect the neck, putting the corners of one module into the pockets of another.
  18. We bend the structure with a crochet.
  19. The final step is to insert the neck into the gap between the swan's wings.
  20. The swan from paper modules is ready.

You can make other crafts from the modules, for example,
